So I had this really cool new idea and went with it. Hope it works out well once it goes live!!! What do you think of the site, which is not 100% complete... but almost there. http://www.simplycertified.com I'd appreciate feedback on EVERYTHING - layout, colors, accessibility, personal opinions, etc. etc. Thanks to all!
Your frontpage looks good the way it is right now, don't change it. I like the colors, layout and your idea Let me know once it is complete, i will write a review about your site on my blog... its brand new.. oh well... it won't hurt ya
How about this for the home page (unfinished!)? http://www.simplycertified.com/index2 Ignore the poor quality... I just saved it as a 255 color PNG. My main problem is the 3 colored boxes.. orange needs the black text, but then its out of place. Also, all 3 of those colors aren't really used on the site besides the purple/green for two images in the browse home.. any input on the maybe-new homepage?
Maybe it's just me... but what is special about this certificate? Why can't someone make one on their own?
It's cheaper to get it done, and you don't have to waste your time? Want to send a certificate to your friend in Europe, from the US? Gotta go buy certificate paper, gotta actually create the text & all, gotta go out and buy a frame, a protective mailer, and pay for shipping. Apart from being too much of a hassel for most people, it will cost more. Why buy anything when you could make it yourself if you REALLY wanted to?
I see. It just didn't seem like there was much to it. And most things people sell, and are actually bought, are things you and I can't create so easily. On that note... Triexa, let us know how the site does. Maybe I'm wrong. Good luck
Okay so I have changed the front page a bit more, yet again... how about the colors? The new image? Let me know!
Hey Triexa! Nice cool site you have there. Terrific idea. About the layout. You have a nice clean design. I don't like the girl with the graduation outfit on index2 it makes the website look serious and college-ish. Index1 is more fun, I really like your tag line "Is your girlfriend the best kisser?" That line roused my attention. Also it would also look nice if you change the color of your logo to look like more of a stamp pad ink color, to make it stand out more too. Over all nice site!
I like the 2nd homepage much better. I was kind of confused by the girl with diploma. It made me think of someone buying a fake diploma. Heh, the name even made me think of those sites that sell tech certifications to you without you having to ever take any test. Overall, very creative idea.
I would not use the image of the girl. I cant say exactly what to use, but the idea of a college grad make it seem like some serious site in my head instead of the fun site I think it is. Maybe you could picture some sample certs to show examples up front of what people can get.
